Description

3 Viewfield Place in Stirling is a classical terrace built around 1835, featuring two stories and a basement, consisting of ten houses arranged in pairs of two bays. The structure is made of ashlar sandstone and includes a dividing band course, cornice, and blocking course, with architraved windows.

On the principal elevation, each pair of bays has a pilastered and corniced doorpiece located in raised bays at the center, with windows above and in the flanking bays. Broad pilasters frame the pairs. However, there are enlarged shop windows that have been added in the flanking bay of Nos 6 and 7 before 1978, and the ground floor door and window at No 5 have been replaced by a modern shopfront (also before 1978). Consoled cornices are present above the flanking ground floor windows at Nos 3 and 4.

Original 12-pane glazing in timber sash and case windows has been preserved at Nos 1 and 9, while other windows feature a mix of small-pane uppers and plate glass lowers, with full plate glass sashes elsewhere. The fanlights are either border-glazed or plate glass, with a multi-pane design at No 7. The roofs are covered with grey slate and remain unbroken except for a Velux rooflight at No 6. The end and mutual gables dividing the pairs have ashlar coped skews and corniced ashlar stacks.

The boundary walls feature saddleback ashlar coping on dwarf retaining walls at the front, although some of these walls have been removed.
